Zvetan Mumdgiev

Altered States of Reality: an Exhibition of Analog and Digital Photography
April 16 - May 7, 2010 Reception: Thursday April 22, 2010 6-8 PM

Press Release

The computer-based art of Zvetan Mumdgiev provides a glimpse into an alternate universe, one inhabited by mysticism, color, and shifting symmetries. Mumdgiev’s digital prints are thrilling in their uniqueness, their suggestions of depth, movement, and transformation. The images appear to be constantly evolving, morphing according to some hidden, deeper plan, leaving traces of their former selves while emerging as something new. The resulting works are visual echoes of ideas, comprised by a multitude of tones and forms simultaneously delicate and ephemeral, complex and strong. Mumdgiev’s digital essays radiate energy and power; they ultimately resonate with the viewer on visceral level, striving to reveal a cosmic unity that underlies their very existence.

 

In addition to computer art, Zvetan Mumdgiev works in many fields, including painting, sculpture, graphic design, interior design, scenography, and installation art. A native of Plovdiv, Bulgaria, where he still resides, Mumdgiev’s work has been exhibited throughout Europe and North America.


Artist Statement

My tools are the computer and the mouse. My approach is similar to the classical painters. I create a work of art with my right hand and the computer. I do not use a scanner, photographs, layers or computer generated images. I avoid previously set geometric formulas. I open myself to emotion and my hand is moved by the feeling of the moment. My fantasies contribute to the themes I work on: love, eroticism, sex, etc. I work on several artworks at the same time, and always return to a painting. There is always something to add, but also something superfluous to delete. What always remains is a sense of simplicity - I distrust ostentation - and a wink; I consider a sense of humor vital to building a bridge from me to my audience.
